The Flash: Grant Gustin Now Officially Finished with Arrowverse Series

He may have wrapped filming & hung up his costume, but today was Grant Gustin's official last day working on The CW's The Flash.

Arrowverse fans are in for something special with this week's episode of The CW's Grant Gustin, Candice Patton & Danielle Panabaker-starring The Flash. Because S09E09 "It's My Party and I'll Die If I Want To" sees Stephen Amell's Oliver Queen/Green Arrow, David Ramsey's John Diggle/Spartan; Keiynan Lonsdale's Wally West/Kid Flash; and Sendhil Ramamurthy's Ramsey Rosso/ Bloodwork back on our screens – and with Panabaker directing. To say that viewers will be combing over every second of the episode for easter egg clues to what's going on in the greater Arrowverse would be a painfully obvious understatement. But just in case folks need a little help getting in the mood, Panabaker shared some geat looks behind the scenes to show how it all came together. But before we get to that… we need to pause an honor an important moment. Because as powerfully impactful as it was to see Gustin wrap filming & hang up his suit, today actually marks his final day with the character. As you can see from the screencaps below, Gustin posted a selfie video to let everyone know that he had just wrapped his final ADR session for the series – making it Gustin actual, 100& legit "final day."

"The episode I directed for Season 9 of [The Flash] airs on Wednesday, and I am extremely proud of this one," Panabaker began the caption to her Instagram post, sharing some looks behind the scene of this week's episode. "The script by Emily & Sam was stellar, every department kicked ass, and the cast can't be beat. I loved getting to tell this story and honor the Arrowverse and the many character and storylines featured in this episode. I hope you all enjoy!" Now, here's a look at the actual post, followed by a look at our previews of the season's next two chapters:
